This week, a Chinese man was caught having lured and trapped 500 cats, all of whom he planned to sell to restaurants for meat. Identified by the name of Sun, the man was located and arrested after complaints of missing domestic cats were reported to the police.

Coming upon the site in a village near the city of Jiujiang, authorities discovered a large number of the cats crammed into small cages in the bed of a truck, many weak and some dead from being trapped in the outdoor heat. Others, in similarly poor health, were found in a nearby hut, awaiting transportation to various restaurants to meet their terrible fate.

After successfully rescuing the cats, the police implored owners to come forward and retrieve their pets. Cats not claimed would simply be released.
Sun admitted to the authorities that he had been capturing and selling cats for meat long before his arrest, apparently charging around 30 yuan, or $4.40, per cat.
Eating cats and dogs is legal in China. Fortunately, measures are being taken in the country to reduce the deaths that millions of these animals face every year. The reported ban of selling dog meat at the annual Yulin Dog Meat Festival, which begins in less than a week, has brought China another step toward putting an end to the cruel practice.
While this is good news to animal lovers everywhere, there is much more work to be done. “Regrettably, many dogs and cats will still be killed for the Yulin festival in advance of the ban, so their suffering is not over yet,” said Peter Li, China policy specialist for Humane Society International. “But this is certainly a milestone victory and we commend the Yulin authorities for taking this action.”

While the ban marks progress for the dogs of China, the same advancement for cats has yet to be won. Activists all around the country are fighting tirelessly for our feline friends. A positive ray of hope shines for the 500 cats rescued by the police in Jiujiang, and hopefully the injustice inflicted on many more throughout China will soon come to an end.
Please their are no absolutely no reason to boil an animal alive to blowtorch an animal alive cats and dogs are not meat being kept in tiny cages no water no food in the sun to be barbaricly killed is inhuman sick and unnecessary no one deserves to be killed this way boiled alive slowly beaten limbs cut of while alive are done by savages no human being with a ounce of decency would do this there is no cure for coronavirus so stop murdering black cats stop all killings of live cats and dogs the world is looking at your Asian countries to stop this barbaric behavior now !!!!!! all the world is ashamed at this disgusting behaviour
This is beyond reason and compassion — WHO does this? — HOW desperate are you for money? — HOW COULD YOU! — THE GREATNESS OF A SOCIETY AND ITS MORAL PROGRESS CAN BE JUDGED BY THE WAY ITS ANIMALS ARE TREATED.
WHERE ARE OUR VALUES? — WHERE ARE OUR CLEAR-THINKING RATIONAL PEOPLE? — WHERE IS OUR COMPASSION?
Wow, do the people who eat these animals see how sick they look and are also, it’s like eating meat that is off. They don’t know what parasites and diseases animals carry around. Then they get sick and need other animals to cure their illnesses caused by eating animals in the first place.
Disgusting, would love to keep him as well as all other like him in a cage in my flat.
That race is so vile. They eat anything that moves. He should be skinned alive and left in the sun.
Sandra, humans are Not a virus on the earth. I believe God loves every human being and animal for His pleasure and gave dominion of the planet to man. Yes, we have screwed up, but we have also made steps in stopping the cruelty done to animals, testing on them, etc. Boycotting these restaurants and their stores is a good idea. But rest assure all animals that die, no matter how, Do go to heaven to be with Jesus. They are all healthy, happy, jumping with joy to be with their Creator.
Terry, All that is wrong with this earth, and I mean ALL, is caused by the human species — the continual tons of radiation leaking into the sea from Fukushima (permanent and irreversible), the island of plastic the size of Texas in the ocean and in the bellies of dying marine mammals, scores of millions of innocent screaming animals not wanting to be dismembered and murdered in slaughter houses (both in the USA and abroad). “Dominion” means stewardship, not murder, lethal pollution and endless war. We have failed miserably. I don’t believe God is a human, who feels pleasure. God is perfect Principle, which when followed, allows for a garden of paradise on earth for all earthlings. But when humans, who are the stewards, are walking around in greed, narcissism, egomania, cold-blooded heartlessness and even just apathy (the majority), we are indeed a virus on this formerly beautiful planet.
So much for this God of Love….he is the one who let the animals and humans suffer.
I’m so glad those cats got saved i total hate the yulin festival with a passion it’s heartbreaking seein cats crushed in boxes they don’t care about any animal ,they eat anything with a pulse makes me so angry ,we should torture the those horrible ppl an throw them in a big pot an boil them alive that would be worth watching
All these vile countries should be eliminated
JOIN US TO BOYCOTT CHINA TOTALY ,THAT SICK EVIL ACATIONS MADE BY CHINA ,SOUTH KOREA AND THE REST OF THE DEMONS FROM ASIA =MUST COME TO AN END !!!THANK YOU
We are just a disgusting species upon this earth that feel we can control and do anything we want to animals. Don’t these people have anything else they can eat besides cats and dogs that people have as loving pets? Not only that, to treat them so cruelly before they kill them. I wish I had the power to hunt each and every one of these idiotic fools down and give them the treatment they give those poor animals. Looks like there are stupid, hateful, heartless, people in all countries. What would serve them right is if there weren’t any animals there. Keep going and there won’t be you morons.
Once again, the Police, this time the Chinese Police come to the rescue, as usual. Thanks, Men!
Regardless of how someone feels about the treatment of animals, I can’t understand how these so called people would do these things to other human beings (stealing their beloved pets), knowing the anguish this causes. Abhorrent on so many levels. It is very encouraging to hear the authorities actions on this.
Get him into the trap, small, filthy with no food. let him be eaten by the tiger or other wild animal. What a criminal , he was stilling other people pets to sell them for food. bastard should be boiled. what is the reason to spare his life? he will do it again and someone will loose the pet to be sold for food again and again. Low life crap!
Well done but it is not enough all dog farms, cats and those on fur farms must be stopped. Using dog leather skins cat skins is not acceptable to the world. We must keep the pressure up many of these cats and dogs are pets stolen. China and others must stand up and obey animal welfare laws. We have to work together across the world to stop this barbaric trade
since i have heard about the yulin dog festival it has made me ill.What we should all do if you see this (made in china) DO NOT BUY IT. there are millions of people signed the petition if we all didnt buy chinesse maybe they would think. STOP NOW PLEASE
Chinese are number one reason why the rhino and elephant population is dwindling. Now, I have other read about domestic dogs and cats being consumed as human food. Older Chinese are the main problem. Hopefully, when they all die off so will these traditions. But, we can’t wait. We must stop this insane behavior.
Thank goodness! But I’m sure for every one of him there are a hundred more. Wonder how he would feel if he were hunted, trapped, and ready to be sold for food??
China, and all the other Asian countries allowing such horrendous so called “cultural practises” where they murder cats and dogs, are basicity psychopathic, and their requiring Rhino horns in order to make their little dicks and egos something they are not is equally sick.
THE CHINESE ARE JUST PLANE EVIL, BARBERIANS, MENTALY DERAINGED, I HATE THESE EVIL MORONS FOR WHAT THEY DO TO THESE BEAUTIFUL ANIMALS, THANK GOODNESS THERE ARE SOME GOOD CHINESE TRYING TO STOP THIS EVIL BUT IT HAS TO BE STOPPED FOR GOOD BY THE GOVERNMENT OF CHINA BUT THEY ARE AS EVIL AS THE REST OF CHINA, THEY JUST DONT CARE THE GOVERNMENT OF CHINA ARE EVIL BARBERIANS, PLEASE STOP THE TORTURE AND KILLING OF DOGS AND CATS NOW AND FOR GOOD.
Thank goodness these poor darlings were rescued, this just breaks my heart. I want to wrap each and every one of them in my arms and keep them safe. What is wrong with people. How many deaths is this individual responsible for? At least he was arrested, that’s something. Cats are beautiful and intelligent and make the best companions.
The exact reason why China desperately needs ANIMAL PROTECTION LAWS to end its barbaric dog and cat meat trades in which >10million dogs and countless cats mostly stolen pets fuel this thriving meat trade to satisfy eating habits of even the wealthiest people such as in Guandong! Protests continues against the TORTURE which underpins this abhorrent trade in the name of myths. These cats were lucky that the police reacted because many truck loads of stolen dogs are never handed over to activists when intercepted and Police protects the violent dog traffickers.
Cram his ass in a Cage that’s so tiny that he is gasping from Pain!
China is full of evil people !!!! STOP THIS EVIL TREATMENT TOWARD GOD’S PRECIOUS ANIMALS !!!
I would like to take that Sun guy and cook him alive. He needs to suffer like all the cats he is responsible for killing. All these countries are barbaric, cruel, horrible and need to be blown off the face of the earth. I hope until then all involved in these atrocities will burn in hell.
China the land of gross human and animal rights abusers! The whole of Asia is hell on earth for animals. They eat them, they have animal brothels – as Germany and other countries do! Human beings are a horrible pox on the earth. I know there are many good people, but as a species, we are a horrible blight on this earth!
I agree….humans are the most awful creatures for the most part God ever put on this earth.
Thank God the police rescued these cats, and they will release those that aren’t claimed, the problem with that is they are at risk of being caught again, and if they’re not neutered or spayed, they will continue to breed, creating more for other psychos to later trap! I can’t BELIEVE China still allows eating of dogs & cats, WHEN are they going to join the modern world, these animals are our companions, AND even if they don’t agree with that, they MUST stop allowing the intentional torture, and abuse, it’s truly DISGUSTING, and not at ALL how ANY human should treat ANY living creature, even if it IS just “food” to them, there is NO excuse whatsoever for the disrespect, and intentional torture, NONE!!!!!
beautifully said!
Truly DESPICABLE, and heart wrenching, thank God these guys were rescued, but they’re not at all out of the woods, the ones that get released are in high danger of being trapped again, and who knows if that person will be caught like this psycho was! HOW can China still allow these poor animals to be eaten, ESPECIALLY when they KNOW the torture involved, God help all the precious animals!!!!
Unfortunately, it’s not just a practice exclusive to some Eastern countries. My daughter told me that she was driving behind a truck in New York City (USA) and boxes of dog paws fell off the back of a truck- even since then she’s only ordered shrimp from their restaurants. I have always heard jokes made about being careful what you order in Chinese restaurants, now I know better!
Boycott all Korean, Chinese, Thai and Vietnamese restaurants! These bullies eat their own mother if they coukd! That’s what they believe in -primitive.l, barbaric!
Start eating kosher meats and boycott pigs all animals which have a rigjt to live!
How about stop eating any flesh of other beings, who have a right to be left alone and not tortured and murdered? The purpose mass breeding of scores of animals is not only cruel, but killing the planet and contributing to world hunger and degenerative disease. Humans are like a virus on this earth and their own worst enemy, without even recognizing what they are doing.
Do the people know what condition the animals are in that they are eating, full of disease and then they kill more animals for medication.
When in one country the police act like a trash thief ! What do u expact of them?? Very disgrace country and shame on earth.
I cannot see anymore of Chinese “hell” when will they ever learn? As a woman living alone with my beloved cat, it breaks my heart to see this. Have they not heard of de-sexing????
Put HIMin a cage and sell him to Aboriginees.
Thank God this individual was caught — WHAT IS HE THINKING — for the love of God, WHERE is the sanity, WHERE is the rationality, WHERE is the compassion — SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG — thank God for all the complaints — thank God the authorities are forcing these monsters to DO THE RIGHT THING — Sun must get into another line of business — STAY AWAY from living beings — STAY AWAY from animals — grow some beans, veggies — find your talent & start a new career — LEAVE THE ANIMALS ALONE — if anything, find these animals homes, find them care, love & respect! — DO NOT ABUSE THEM, DO NOT INFLICT UNCONSCIONABLE SUFFERING ON THEM — LET THEM LIVE IN HAPPINESS, GOOD HEALTH & COMFORT — REMEMBER : we are all living beings, we are all physical beings with emotional & psychological lives — these cats are NOT stuffed animals!
Hi all I agree with you all the way. China, South Korea, all the horrible countries with no compassion. We have to hit them and put pressure on the countries expose them world wide.. where it will force them to stop this barbaric cruelty. Exposing them and not purchasing anything or supporting them in anyway should put pressure on them to stop. They need to find another way to make the money that they are doing this for. There must be an end to this horrific nightmare. I hate them as much as you all.. and wish I could take every monster over there off this planet – 🙁
